Changhe, a native of yi county, Bianzhou, was born in Wenxian County, Hanoi. He joined the Wagang Army in his early years, followed Shi Biao to kill Zhang Xutuo, a general of Sui Dynasty, and later took refuge in Luoyang King. He followed Li to Hebei for Liu Heita. After entering the Tang dynasty, the official was a corps commander. On the fourth day of June in Wude nine years, after Li and Li Yuanji passed Xuanwu Gate, why did they often close Xuanwu Gate? "Two thousand elite soldiers are not allowed to enter the East Palace and pray for blessings", which enabled Li Shimin to successfully kill and build. Zhenguan for six years, served as a doctor in Taizhong. In addition to Yanzhou military affairs, he was also the founder of Jueshui County. Later, he successively served as Jingzhou secretariat, General You Tunwei, General You Wuwei, Deputy General Manager of Pyongyang Road March, Zizhou secretariat and Qianzhou secretariat.
Who is this man? There are no biographies in the old and new Tang books, but his name only exists in Biography of Li Mi, Biography of Ma Zhou and Old Tang Books? A flash in the pan in the annals of Emperor Taizong. The prime minister's lineage in the Book of the New Tang Dynasty shows Chang's name, and the information is hard to find. If it is an ordinary passer-by, of course, whether his information is irrelevant to the overall situation. The problem is that he is not a passerby, and his role is very important. So important, not only changed the pattern of Datang, but also changed the historical trend. This makes people wonder.
When we look at the changes in Xuanwu Gate, we can't understand one thing: How did Li Shimin and others ambush in Xuanwu Gate in advance? You know, Xuanwu Gate is not the entrance to a public toilet, nor is it a place where anyone can enter if he wants to. This question has been inconclusive for thousands of years, and no one has thought deeply about it. But Mr. Chen Yinque noticed this. When he was studying in France, he suddenly realized when he saw the epitaph written by Li Yifu in Dunhuang in the Paris Library.
Mr. Chen wrote "A Brief Draft of Political History of Sui and Tang Dynasties"
Li Yifu's "yes-men can write", but he wrote an epitaph for Changhe, whose name has never been heard of, which shows that Changhe is not an ordinary person. Later, Mr. Chen checked the name of the imperial commander who was guarding Xuanwu Gate at that time, and he was more confident. It turned out that the commander-in-chief of the imperial army guarding Xuanwu Gate at that time was Changhe. When you compare it twice, things will be clear. Originally is often and let Li Shimin and others come in.
Then another question comes. Why does Li often let in, and he will not guard against it? At that time, the contradiction between the two had reached a white-hot state, and there was a trend of "seeing through difficulties". Li was stupid at that time. Even though Li is stupid, there is a deceitful and suspicious Li Yuanji around him. Can he not be careful everywhere? There is only one answer, and this person is Li Chang.
Then another problem appeared. Since he is a Li, how can he get paid? Does Li use a capricious person so carelessly and concisely? If Changhe is such a person, will Li be caught off guard? You should know that Li is a good servant, and Wei and others are loyal ministers. Just look away?
There is only one reason. Changhe is a pawn that has long been arranged beside Li, a senior The Infiltrator. His identity is top secret, and there is only one online, and that is Li Shimin himself. His latent level is zombie level, and he won't wake up unless he has to.
So how did Zhang He become a member of the Qin clique, and how did he successfully lurk around Li? His epitaph gives us the answer. This is the focus of today's article. The epitaph is written in classical Chinese, and the original text is not copied. Directly on the vernacular version. It is difficult to type with your fingers.
Long-term workers keep secrets, and the words (the original text is missing) are from Chenliu, Henan. I have been a knight-errant since I was a child, and heroes from all walks of life have joined in. There was chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and he was elected as the leader of the rebel army. Song Jiang, equivalent to water margin.
How did he get his name? He has an elder surnamed Zheng, so he touched his head and said, This child has ambition and will surely prosper our family in the future, and his achievements will not be lower than that of Xiao He. So I named him Changhe.
Shi Biao started his army. He went to buy shares and gave him the position of "Shang Zhu Guolei". This official name is even more thunder than Chen's "devil in the world" who bites gold. Leigong, it's raining. Then there are compliments, such as "outsmart the Western Han Dynasty and surpass Xu at the end of the Han Dynasty". "look forward to the trend of security and examine the traces of rise and fall." The greatest contribution was to persuade Shi Biao to submit to the Li Tang regime. Shi Biao followed Zhang He's advice. It depends on the public. That is to say, if it weren't for Wang Po's clever mouth, Shi Biao probably wouldn't yield to Li Tang. If Shi Biao unites the king, it is still unknown whether Li Tang can win the king.
But what about Sui Shu? Shi Mi Biography wrote that it was not Zhang He who advised him to submit to Li Tang at that time, but his secretary Liu Xie.
After Shi Biao surrendered to Li Tang, the treatment given by Li Tang was not high. Shi Biao is very angry and wants to rebel. How often do you cry? But Shi Biao wouldn't listen. He insisted with Wang Bodang and was shot dead by random arrows. Later, Changhe and his gang were accepted by Wang, but Wang did not treat these "Shandong heroes" well, so the heroes jumped ship one after another, such as Cheng, Li and others. Chang He also brought some bodyguards to Wang's side.
Long rivers are different from Qin Cheng. Qin Cheng just wants to go alone and doesn't want to please others. Chang He wanted to win over Wang's cronies, but Wang found it "a miracle". It can be seen that playing infernal affairs is often a strength. Because of his chivalrous spirit, he can take the lead.
Tang Gaozu was very happy and gave a car to ride the general's office. Then follow as king. Become the commander of Li Shimin's Xuanjia Army. * * * has one thousand XuanJiaJun, divided into four teams, each team of two hundred and fifty people, respectively by Weichi Gong, (MAO),,, as the captain. Weichi Gong is the captain of the guard. He is often a subordinate of Weichi Gong, following the security of the guard. (Emperor Taizong's plan to seek the eastern capital is based on the public. )
Li Shimin led Weichi Gong and three Xuanjia troops to challenge in Dou Jiande camp, one of whom was Changhe.
After Luoyang War, Zhang He returned to Chang 'an, followed Li Pingding to settle Liu Heita, made meritorious service and was trusted by Li.
In the seventh year of Wude, that is, two years before the Xuanwu Gate mutiny, Zhang He was transferred by Li to Chang 'an to guard Xuanwu Gate. Let the north gate lead the athletes to grow. )
At this time, Chang 'e secretly sneaked into Qin Gong and once again expressed her loyalty to Li Shimin. And this contact should be more than once. In favor of the feudal dynasty, I participated in the news. ) Li Shimin's "Give a knife to gold, and make thirty pieces of gold". Usually the golden knife is money. Yan Shigu's note: "Gold is the gold of five colors, and knives are coins." Meng Jiao has a poem "What I Know": "And I will eat Y labor and pay it as a golden knife." In other words, I ate people's food and wanted to give them money.
But the golden knife here is calculated by pieces, but it is not money, but a pair of gold-plated scissors. A pair of gold-plated silver scissors from the Tang Dynasty was unearthed in modern archaeology, which was 150mm long and 1mm thick and weighed about 25g. The front is gilded with pearls, and the local gilded place is decorated with Suzaku named Ganoderma Lotus. Although thousands of years have passed, the gold plating on the decoration is still brilliant and dazzling. The decoration is exquisite and delicate, and the lines are smooth and elastic. Its manufacturing process is amazing.
So what are these scissors for? It's not the everyday tailoring in our imagination, but the mascot to ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters. Because scissors can be poked, cut, hinged, cut, rolled, and powerful.
When the demons saw the scissors, they immediately ran away with their heads down in fear, and the family was always peaceful.
Li Shimin gave away this kind of gold-plated scissors, which is the genius of his works. As we all know, giving gifts is not about value, but about heart. As long as you have good intentions and let the other person feel your sincerity, even if you only have a tissue, you can get a girl.
Of course, there should still be money. Gold thirty. Jinting is a gold ingot.
Li Shimin gave dozens of golden knives to other warriors guarding Xuanwu Gate. Let them feel the hospitality of the king of Qin.
At this time, the charm of Li Shimin came out. "I am deeply grateful for the kindness of clothes. I am sincerely applying for an account."
What is "undressing"? Han Xin was advised to rebel. Han Xin said that when I was down and out, it was Hanwang who took off his clothes and gave me a job to eat. How can this goodwill be betrayed? Yi Zhongtian explained that this is the friendship of Qin people, that is, "no clothes and no robes". Actually, the root cause of pulling is not.
What is "sincerity in applying for account cancellation"? During the Three Kingdoms period, Soochow set up "evasion soldiers", and the managers of these evasion soldiers were "evasion supervisors". Sun Quan went out to March and fight, and these soldiers kept outside the military account. At this point, Li Shimin and Changhe recalled the sincere years when he was a personal bodyguard around, and their feelings became deeper.
Why did Li Shimin do this? Because he often eats this set. Both Han Xin and Changhe were born as rangers, advocating "a scholar dies for his bosom friend" and paying attention to dignity and loyalty. For example, Song Jiang. Some people say that it is the same as giving money. Why can Song Jiang be the boss? Chai Jin is silly. Because Song Jiang not only gives money, but also "diligently collects" and is not tired. Spend time with each other every day and enjoy it. Just like looking for a partner, in addition to giving money, you have to take time out to accompany, go shopping, chat, coax and hug. Make you feel that you love her and can entrust her for life. Or you'll be out of the wall. Raising a woman is actually the same as raising a younger brother. But Song Jiang couldn't raise a woman and didn't have time to accompany him. As a result, he was pried open by his colleague Zhang Wenyuan. It can be seen that all capable people have shortcomings.
Being soothed so often. You can compare Li with Li. Li also gave Weichi Gong a car full of gold, silver and jewels for Weichi Gong to do with himself. So, Weichi Gong immediately reported to Li Shimin with the money. Li Shimin said he knew that if he gave you money later, you should take it. Keep the flowers for yourself. You don't have to hand them in or report them.
Why did the same kind of money buy off each other's younger brother? Li didn't succeed. It's Song Jiang, and Li is Chai Jin. Spending money idly is regarded as Kai Zi.
Since then, he has often drifted away from each other on the surface, but he has a close relationship with him and won trust. As minister of thighs and arms. Two years later, in the ninth year of Wushu, Li Shimin decided to mutiny that night and started this chess piece. In other words, the dozens of "golden knives" he sent before were dozens of chess pieces planted in Li camp, which were hidden for many years just to wait for this critical moment.
Therefore, "before the Xuanwu Gate was changed in nine years, it was sent to K North Gate". K, reading Sect, means holding hands. Send it, entrust it. In Zhuge Liang's Teacher's Watch, Liu Bei entrusted an orphan: "The first emperor knew that his ministers were cautious and sent them to do great things when he was on the verge of collapse." "Send it to the K North Gate", that is to say, Li Shimin gave Chang 'e the important task of changing the Xuanwu Gate. Brother Chang, I'll give you this 180 Jin. I'll leave it to you. Therefore, Mr. Chen Yinque said, "The change of Xuanwu Gate was the most dangerous, arduous and decisive battle in Li Shimin's life.". He made a lot of efforts to make this "difficult decision". I hesitated again and again, and almost made no decision.
But at this time, Changhe's attitude was not so firm. Because Li is very kind to him. This is the pain of the infiltrator. He is often subdued, but he is not completely subdued. Changhe's attitude towards Li Shimin is like Song Wu's attitude towards Song Jiang, not Li Kui jy's attitude towards Song Jiang. Song Wu has his own independent personality and insight, but Li Kui jy doesn't. Song Wu opposed to woo, so Song Jiang had to consult with Song Wu. Dear brother, don't you think I can get along with such a thing? Li Kui jy objected to harness, and Sung River cursed directly, pulling the black fellow out and cutting it down.
